Limited Edition George Washington Rye Whiskey Bottle #1116 Year 2015
This special bottle of George Washington's Straight Rye Whiskey is one of a limited number of bottles distilled at George Washington's reconstructed distillery. After aging for two years in barrels, this straight rye whiskey was bottled and labeled by hand. The mash bill, or recipe, was discovered by researchers examining historic distillery ledgers for 1798 and 1799. His whiskey consisted of 60% rye, 35% corn and 5% malted barley. The records also indicate that George Washington's whiskey was distilled at least twice before being sent to market. In Washington's time, whiskey was not aged in barrels but was sold in its unaged clear, colorless form.
Must be 21 or older to purchase.
Value: $188.00

6 Bottles of Wine from the Robert Keenan Winery

Wine lovers- especially red aficionados- will appreciate this collection from the Robert Keenan Winery. Winner will enjoy 3 bottles of 2012 Reserve Mernet and 3 bottles of 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon.  

2012 is the 14th consecutive vintage of Mernet, the proprietary marriage of Merlot and Cabernet. Each blend has been half Merlot and half Cabernet but no two wines have had the same vineyard combinations. The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa has more cassis, tar, camphor and an attractive, fleshy, full-bodied mouthfeel, impressive ripeness and body. It's a solid Cabernet to drink now and over the next 10-15 years.
